It doesn't have to be effective to gain popularity. Just the rumor could be enough to cause a small percentage of people to try it. Even a small percentage of people doing it could lead to a wider spread of disease, especially when the

When I was looking, the older models were around $500. Looks like they came down in price. I also looked at used, but my company stipend/discount would only apply to new.

I'd love a phone around that price that would run Graphene.

I wonder what percentage of Pixel sales ended up running Graphene. It feels like running Graphene is the only real benefit to a Pixel. I wonder if Google is getting out of phones after Pixel 10 or 11.

You could also just cap it 49 or 54 years old. A lot of medical research does this when looking into things like cancers. It gives a pretty good indication of whats going on during early and prime year without as much longevity bias or &#x2

Then anything anyone says is suspected because nobody knows if it's real incidence or observation. Frankly, I evaluate claims by the medical community with the same skepticism as I do RFK - show me the data, reproducibility, etc. It wo

You have ingress filters that strip the subject tag out of anything and only add it back if it is verified. It's really not that hard and the training is supposed to train people. Nothing is perfect, nor does it need to be with defense

It went down due to speed and cost constraints, then went down farther with AI slop. That's what I've seen in my career. Testing has been an afterthought for a while and AI has resulted in "passing" but mostly worthless

A lot of these limits seem to be set so high that they won't have much impact. But at the same time, the calories limit per item and saturated fat limit are low enough that you potentially cant serve a baked chicken thigh.

Nobody wants to work for dealships. There are plenty of mechanics that that work at their own shops or for independent shops for better pay and conditions. Some places choose to do just the easier services (eg no transmission or internal en

So what's the breakdown of that $25k for the provider?

Is it a good example of drug price gouging? I would bet the major part of the price is that provider.

Can you adjust those to for a per capita and CoL basis? That something else could also be stuff like malpractice insurance, legal settlements, etc.

Lower paying jobs tend to be a single in person interview. Some jobs have a phone interview and then an in-person. Some jobs have practical tests during the interview, such as with welding.

Why would it be? All you need is an aluminum PVD or plated piece of plastic with a protective coating. Should be pretty cheap.

I thought the generators phase differently with the movement of the engine vs the type of inverter you nened for use with batteries. I do agree it should be trivial.

You mean something like feeding a grid fed inverter an artificially generated wave form from a Raspberry Pi and some relays or something?

Why not mount the double sided vertical panels edge towards the sun with a mirror panel on each side? Add some passive cooling channels between the panels, or even boost it with a small fan. I would think that might result in even better g
